Correlates of Stress Among African American Nuns

This article presents the findings of an exploratory study of the stress experienced by 72 African American nuns. The study found that the less satisfied the nuns were with their religious congregations and the less healthy they felt, the more stress they reported. Stress was also significantly correlated with current age, age at entrance into religious life, and length of time in religious life and in the current religious congregation.
